The Description
After completing Teach for America’s 2017 Philadelphia Institute, I will be responsible for my very own English/Language Arts classroom! I'm super excited about meeting my students and their families in the fall. Having the privilege of teaching these students means that even before meeting them, I'm thinking about how to meet their needs in the classroom. Teaching at a high-need school means that my students may lack access to the school supplies they will use on a daily basis. It's incredibly difficult for students to take part in activities and classwork when they don't have access to basic materials.
To start this school year off right, I will use the money I raise to purchase startup supplies that will transform my classroom into a clean, accessible, and welcoming environment. I will share these needed supplies with students that otherwise would not have them. By purchasing supplies like copy paper, I will ensure that I can provide my students with high-quality learning materials such as exit tickets, activity sheets, and homework assignments.
PledgeCents allows me to keep whatever I raise, so anything you can contribute really will make a difference for my first year. I want to build power with my students and show them the importance of \"community" first-hand. My students are not statistics, they are human beings, and I will advocate for them inside and outside of the classroom. Thank you for supporting me and my students at the beginning of this new adventure!
With these funds I will...create the best learning environment I can for my kids. I will use these funds to buy materials that are essential to facilitating their learning through critical thinking, dialogue, and maintaining a brave and safe space.
